[Bug 1700784] [NEW] sikulixapi: calling paste on vnc screen sends incorrect keypresses for vnc OS

 

Public bug reported:

When running sikulixapi on OSX against a VM running windows 10, the
paste method seems to be sending the paste key combination for OSX. The
field in the VNC machine just appears with "v" as if sikuli might be
sending the OSX combo of "CMD+v" which would make not sense to win10.

Is the vnc screen api capable of understanding the difference between
the "host" OS (where sikulixapi is running) and the "guest" OS (running
vnc server)?

Sikulix 1.1.1
OS: OSX Sierra / Win10

To repro:
Create a vnc screen connecting from an OSX host to a Windows 10 machine running vnc server. I'm using tightvnc. Call region.paste.

As always, thanks for sikulix!
